"Coach K has been very helpful in getting the foundations of the game down. As someone coming from tennis, there were important holes in my game and a general lack of knowledge of pickleball strategy. After just a few lessons, I’m already way better at dinking and have a much better sense of how to focus and improve my game going forward. It has been productive and fun working with him. Highly recommend!

PPR certified pickleball coach. 4.0 player with several competitive Gold Medals. Teaching beginners and intermediate players for 3+ years now. Ages teen thru senior. Priority one is that my students always have fun while learning.
"Ed was quite helpful, especially with my net game, emphasizing paddle control and passing on helpful tips like holding my ground and hitting down on lobs. Still, more practice on dinking and unattackable serves would be great, though I left feeling more confident. If you're interested in sharpening specific skills, Ed's a solid choice to try out.

"My son just started and already loves it. He’s usually shy, but Coach Dawson made him comfortable right away. After just a couple lessons he’s dribbling without staring at the ball and actually wants to practice at home. I can already see his confidence growing.

"Mrs. Lazaro completely transformed my son José’s academic trajectory in the first grade! Coming from a household that primarily communicates in Spanish, we needed an educator who could help him excel in English immersion. She used structured multi-sensory tools like Heggerty, UFLI, and Learning A-Z, carefully tracking his literacy metrics with mClass. In mathematics, she utilized McGraw-Hill resources alongside Aimsweb to ensure he reached the top-tier percentile. Beyond the incredible academic metrics, she fosters an incredibly creative classroom environment—she even organized the class to publish a collaborative book called 'Our Cosmic Landscape' where José authored and illustrated a real fable. Her teaching is intentional, data-driven, and full of heart!
